A Few February Features


Last Wednesday, we celebrated Jr. Cougar Week with ways of expressing our gratitude and serving others. Our Jr. Cougars have a special primary mission project help them love, give back, and be a blessing to our community! In priceless partnership with The Bridge Academy in Coatesville, Jr. Cougars have the opportunity to help to supply snacks for the children they serve. Mrs. Liz Taylor, a Jr. Cougar mom who serves at The Bridge Academy shared:


The Bridge Academy and Community Center serves families in the city of Coatesville and surrounding areas. Our mission is to equip youth and families with the tools necessary for academic achievement, life skills, creative expression, spiritual growth and leadership. We have academic programs for students K-12 where we provide homework and specific academic support. We also have evening programs where we have a family style meal, a bible lesson and additional activities. In 2023, we served 411 unique students through our Bridge programming. 7,080 meals were served during our regular programs and events. 2,505 snacks were also served, and 1,200 meals were distributed at community events. The Bridge is incredibly grateful to partner with Conestoga Christian School and the Junior Cougars to help provide snacks for our programs!

Jr. Cougars in preschool through grade 5 can bring in their snack donations for the children that attend The Bridge Academy from Friday, 1/31 until our elementary chapel on Wednesday, 2/12. During this chapel, we will present the tasty treats to Mrs. Taylor and pray over them and for all the children who will be eating them too!


Mrs. Taylor's suggested snacks are:

Individually packaged snacks are great for our programs. For example, packs of chips,  cookies, granola bars, goldfish, and pretzels. Mini water bottles and juice boxes are appreciated too.

If your Jr. Cougar likes to eat them, the children at The Bridge Academy probably will too! 😁😁😁
